Le jardin des bas perdus

Two-time Scotiabank Giller Award winner Esi Edugyan presents her first picture book, beautifully illustrated by Amélie Dubois. It's a whimsical story about friendship, curiosity, and the magic of a vibrant community.

Akosua is always told she's too nosy. Her parents love her dearly, but she's always getting into trouble.

"I'm a finder," Akosua declares. "I can find anything!"

Esi Edugyan is one of Canada's brightest literary stars. She tells the story of Akosua as she discovers both a new friend and a remarkable world hidden within her own community. Acclaimed artist Amélie Dubois adds a touch of magic to Akosua's charming adventure with her delicate and captivating illustrations.

Each page turned draws readers deeper into Akosua's journey, challenging them to become discoverers themselves, and encouraging them to seek magic in the banality of everyday life!
